Phagocytes from flora-defined and germfree athymic nude mice do not demonstrate enhanced antibacterial activity.
In this study we directly compared the in vitro antibacterial activities of resident and inflammatory phagocytes obtained from athymic (nu/nu) and euthymic (nu/+) mice. Resident peritoneal macrophages obtained from flora-defined nu/nu and nu/+ mice both demonstrated little ability to restrict the growth of Listeria monocytogenes in vitro. Inflammatory peritoneal neutrophils and macrophages obta...
متن کاملCharacterization of locomotor activity circadian rhythms in athymic nude mice
UNLABELLED BACKGROUND The relation between circadian dysregulation and cancer incidence and progression has become a topic of major interest over the last decade. Also, circadian timing has gained attention regarding the use of chronopharmacology-based therapeutics. Given its lack of functional T lymphocytes, due to a failure in thymus development, mice carrying the Foxn1(Δ/Δ) mutation (nude...
متن کاملHerpetic keratitis in athymic (nude) mice.
The inflammatory response to herpes simplex virus infection of the cornea was studied in athymic nude (nu/nu) and heterozygote (nu/+) BALB/c mice. Although athymic mice were highly susceptible to HSV infection and died 13 to 17 days after corneal inoculation, they failed to develop necrotizing keratitis of the cornea. Heterozygote mice survived the initial virual infection, but many of these mi...
متن کاملInfections of Brugia pahangi in conventional and nude (athymic) mice.
AKR, BALB/c and CBA/Ca and T.O. mice were completely resistant to infection with third stage infective larvae of Brugia pahangi. Third, fourth and fifth stage worms transplanted from the peritoneal cavity of jirds into the peritoneal cavity of mice continued to develop. BALB/c mice were the most susceptible of the strains tested and adult worms were obtained after each type of transplanted infe...
متن کاملTargeted ANP32E Mutant Mice Do Not Demonstrate Obvious Movement Defects
BACKGROUND The ANP32 family of proteins have been implicated in neuronal function through biochemical and cellular biology studies in neurons, as well as by recent behavioural studies of a gene-trapped loss-of-function mutation of Anp32e in mice, particularly with respect to fine motor function. A second targeted allele of the Anp32e, however, did not appear to demonstrate neurological phenotyp...
